I have no problem with Dr. Yao. This is about someone else at the practice. I needed to come in…read moredue to a uti and did not have an appointment. They asked if I would mind seeing a nurse practitioner. I had no problem with that as many nurse practitioners are fabulous. When I got there I was told I would see Mr. Wang, the nurse practitioner. He came into the room and did not even look at me. No greeting or introduction, just a very stern face. He then became absorbed in reading why I was there. He asked about my symptoms and when I tried to fully explain he harshly said "I only want to hear about why you are here". When I tried to explain that sometimes things are related he again loudly said to only talk about the symptoms of the reason that I was there for. I felt like saying I was sorry he was having a bad day but I kept my mouth shut. He was actually very intimidating. To make matters more difficult he has a very strong Chinese accent and it was difficult to understand everything that he said. While there, a medical assistant brought in a copy of my last bone scan. He immediately took it and began studying it although that was not the reason I was there. I had asked to have a copy and they brought it in when I was in the consulting room. He spent most of the time with me looking at the results and telling me how I was at risk. Obviously this was against his rules about talking about anything other than the reason that I was there. I asked him how many of his patients took medicine for osteopoenia. He said they do what he tells them. He wrote a script for a very basic medicine for the reason I was there. When I went to the pharmacy they did not have any. I asked why because it is one of the most common medicines ever and it is unlikely they would not have it. The pharmacy tech said that it was unusual because it was so weak. Most every other physician treating my condition orders the stronger dosage and they rarely get a call to order something less effective. I never take anti biotics as I know they are dangerous. However when I need one, I want a powerful dose to knock out whatever I have. Not one that is weak and will require another trip to the doctor to up the dose. I will continue to see Dr. Yao. I did not have a problem with the staff as so many have commented and Dr Yao seems fine. However I will refuse to ever see Mr. Wang. I think the name speaks for itself. Usually Nurse practitioners call themselves Mary Jones etc. not Mrs. Jones.

It is a pleasure to write this letter of recommendation for Dr De La Peña…read more She has been my Dr for Five years. She is easy to talk to, listens and is an excellent Dr. I have had 2 occasions that required additional testing and referrals to specialists. Dr De La Peña makes those referrals. Those Drs have been excellent. These situations also require yearly follow ups. Dr De La Peña goes through the blood work and lab reports with me. She answers my questions and I have complete confidence in her. Whether it is my regular yearly visits or an unexpected virus she is there for me and that makes all the difference!

My wife and I inherited Dr. De La Pena when our physician changed to being a concierge provider…read more While we liked our previous physician, we like Doctor De LA Pena even more! We have even moved our adult children over to her. Combined with the 365 program, we feel as though we are receiving true concierge care. My 90+ year-old parents had expensive concierge care, and the care and attention that we receive from Dr. De La Pena is just as good, From the routine to crisis care, the attention and quality of care are outstanding. One example. I was regularly seeing two different podiatrists for problematic feet. I called Dr. De La Pena to complain about pain in my foot. She had me come in THE SAME DAY and helped pave the path to surgery that I ended up having two weeks later. Without her immediate care, I literally would have lost a foot. That was just one example of many. Great Doc!

I recently relocated to the desert and needed to reestablish care with a primary physician. I feel…read morevery fortunate to have found Dr. Stephanie Yao. From start to finish, my experience exceeded expectations. Check-in was immediate and friendly, and the wait time was minimal. While I've seen some reviews mention a lack of eye contact or focus on the computer, my experience was the complete opposite. Dr. Yao spent an enormous amount of time getting to know my medical history, asking thoughtful questions--more than any physician I've seen before--and carefully documenting everything so it's accessible for other providers. She couldn't have been more knowledgeable, personable, or caring. Together, we created an actionable plan to optimize my health, and she immediately provided referrals to additional specialists to put that plan into motion. I also appreciate that she makes herself accessible through the patient portal to answer questions and provide follow-up. I left my appointment feeling truly well cared for. Thank you, Dr. Yao!

He has performed two colonoscopy procedures on me and I couldn't be more pleased with the quality of care.

The next thing I knew I was in the recovery room and i opened my eyes and a nurse said we are all done now, you can go home. Afterwards there was no discomfort of any kind. I highly reccomend Dr. Curry.
